Setting up a stamp string

To setup an image stamp string, do the following:

  1. Click Setup on either the Front or Back section. The Stamp String Setup dialog box will be displayed.

  2. Select the items from the list of available Stamp String formulas that you want to include in your stamp string. For each item you select, click Add.

  • The Add leading zeros and Number length fields become available when you select the following: Document ID, Page Sequence Number, Image Sequence Number, Image Address Level 1, Image Address Level 2, or Image Address Level 3.  When selecting Page Sequence Number or Image Sequence Number you will also have the option to specify when the page or image sequence number should be reset and the value to which it should be reset.

  • To remove an item from the stamp string formula, click Delete Item.

  • To delete an entire formula from the stamp string formula, click Delete Formula.

  1. When finished defining your stamp string, click OK.

  2. Define the location of the stamp string by specifying the placement of the image stamp on either side of the page. Margin defines the size of the border between the text and adjacent page edge(s), either from the right or left edge horizontally and top or bottom edge vertically. If Middle is selected, the margin in only applied to the vertical dimension.

  3. Select the desired font size: 16 or 18.

  4. If a bold type is desired, click Bold.

  5. Select Copy front to back if you want to duplicate the same stamp string specified on the front page on both sides, otherwise proceed to setup the back stamp string.

  6. When finished, click OK.

The software makes no attempt to fit text into the image stamping region. If an image stamp is larger than the allocated region, excess text will be truncated. Image stamp size is difficult to predict and depends on the complexity of the formula, font size, allocated margins and the string itself. It is recommended that a test scan(s) is performed to be sure that the specified string is not too large to fit into the stamping region.
